The GeoJSON Authors are proud to announce the finalization of the
GeoJSON 1.0 Specification.

Representing more than a year's worth of community discussion and
development, the GeoJSON specification describes an easy to use,
extensible format for transferring geographic data over the web. With
support in more than 20 different applications, GeoJSON is already
quickly becoming a de facto standard for transferring geographic data in
a JSON format. The finalization of the spec represents the final step in
formalizing the GeoJSON format for encoding this data.

OpenLayers is one of the early supporters in reading GeoJSON.
